Summary:
Localizing the entry of a procedure needs the globals (that the
procedure uses), but later creating a summary does not.

Summary:
Distinguish expressions that name globals from registers. This leads
to clearer code, and globals are semantically distinct from general
registers. In particular, they are constant, so any machinery for
handling assignment does not need to consider them. This diff only
adds the distinction to LLAIR, it is not pushed through to FOL, which
will come later.

Summary:
Distinguish expressions that name functions from registers. This leads
to clearer code, and function names are semantically distinct from
general registers. In particular, they are constant, so any machinery
for handling assignment does not need to consider them. Unlike general
globals, they never have initializer expressions, and in particular
not recursive initializers. This diff only adds the distinction to
LLAIR, it is not pushed through to FOL, which will come later.

Summary:
Change the type of `fold` functions to enable them to compose
better. The guiding reasoning behind using types such as:
```
val fold : 'a t -> 's -> f:('a -> 's -> 's) -> 's
```
is:
1. The function argument should be labeled. This is so that it can be
reordered relative to the others, since it is often a multi-line
`fun` expression.
2. The function argument should come last. This enables its
arguments (which are often polymorphic) to benefit from type-based
disambiguation information determined by the types of the other
arguments at the call sites.
3. The function argument's type should produce an
accumulator-transformer when partially-applied. That is,
`f x : 's -> 's`. This composes well with other functions designed
to produce transformers/endofunctions when partially applied, and
in particular improves the common case of composing folds into
"state-passing style" code.
4. The fold function itself should produce an accumulator-transformer
when partially applied. So `'a t -> 's -> f:_ -> 's` rather than
`'s -> 'a t -> f:_ -> 's` or `'a t -> init:'s -> f:_ -> 's` etc.

Summary:
Refer to Llair modules using `Llair.` qualifier, except for in
`Frontend`, which makes so much use of `Llair` that it is now opened
(`Llair` only contains types and modules, so `open` is safe).
